Hi,
Yes, it is common to have breakthrough bleeding or periods that are irregular when you go off-and-on the pill. The pill contains hormones that regulate your period when taken consistently, so it makes sense that you would have inconsistent periods when taking the pill inconsistently, right?! There is no problem if you changed your mind, and it does not cause any damage to your body...just inconvenience for a cycle or two that you will not know when you have a period or breakthrough bleeding (bleeding in-between periods).
Please know this may happen next month as well, and this is normal!
